Default Internship before CCSA NGX exam or Later ?

I am currently preparing hard for the CCSA NGX.

I haven't got the opportunity to work till now in an Enterprise
where Checkpoint Solutions are used. So I download few trials
of Checkpoint softwares and try to get used and have
some hands-on from Home.

As I am preparing for CCSA NGX, do you advise me to
have at least 1 month Internship in an Enterprise where
Checkpoint is used or Can i wait after I get Certified to apply for ?

Thanks for your Help and
Thanks for this Forum !

Cedric,

I took this exam a couple of months back & passed.
Have been working hands-on with Checkpoint for about 4 years.
Nothing can beat experience in my opinion, however if you have done a lot of reading & testing in a lab you may be ok?

There is a lot of good info in this section to help you out.

Worse case you can always take the test again at a later date if you don't pass first time.

Good luck!

Hello David,
Thanks for your e-mail.
I keep all your advices to prepare for the Exam.
Before working in an Enterprise where Checkpoint Softwares are used,
I will setup my own Lab at home.

Thanks again

Cedric
